Description: Two seated 'Grunts' carrying their venerated M14 Rifles. As many Vietnam Vets have testified the replacement of the M14 by the newer, lighter M16 was not especially popular especially with the Marines. As the Corps placed a high value on marksmanship and appreciated the extra 'stopping-power' of the heavier M14 7.62mm NATO round most Marines tried to hold onto their favoured rifles that little bit longer, at least while 7.62 ammunition was still readily available! Notice: * Bench is not included. Established in 1983 King & Country is owned and operated by Andy Neilson and Laura Johnson based in Hong Kong King & Country collectible toy soldiers include a range of hand painted collectible metal toy soldiers military and civilian figures polystone vehicles and accessories. WE are one of the best-known and most-collected producers of toys soldiers and miniature figures in the world today. King & Country all-metal, hand-painted, 1:30 scale figures (about 60mm tall) cover the broadest spectrum of history - from Ancient to Modern and many points in between. K & C begin in Ancient Egypt before travelling on to the time of Christ and Imperial Rome... K & C's miniature history series include The Crusades before journeying westwards to Europe and The English Civil War and later to the colourful spectacle of The Age of Napoleon. Moving even further west across the Atlantic we depict the brave but doomed battle to defend The Alamo and the epic Indian Wars of the late 19th Century. In more modern times King & Country helps tell the story of The First World War and the battles and campaigns in both the Middle East and the Western Front. Following the end of that War we also explore in miniature the people and personalities that led to the terrible rise of The Third Reich in our Berlin '38 series. That inevitably leads on to The Second World War itself... No other toy soldier company has designed or produced as many or as varied a selection of WW2 military and civilian figures, fighting AE079nd accessories as King & Country! From the German invasion of Poland in September 1939 until the Fall of Berlin in May 1945 we tell the story in authentic, hand-made detail. As the real war raged across the globe K&C also reproduces the troops, tanks and many other items that replicates the battles and campaigns fought in Europe... The Pacific... North Africa and Russia. More recent decades' history can be seen in our relatively new Arab / Israeli conflict and Vietnam War series. On a lighter note, K&C also produces several non-military 'civilian' ranges that attract both male and female collectors... 'Streets of Old Hong Kong' is an affectionate look-back at turn-of-the-19th & 20th Century Hong Kong with a huge range of traditionally dressed Chinese figures and attractive buildings of the period. 'World of Dickens' and 'Streets of Olde London' feature characters and people drawn from the works of Charles Dickens and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and his most famous creation, Sherlock Holmes.
